There Is a subscriber site on hotmail.com called Your Quick Inspiration for the Day. I find it a wonderful daily encouragement when life is just too busy and burdensome to sit down and do more serious reading. And I find these messages do help me when I am lonely and downcast. One message entitled Meanings inspired me especially. Let me share it with you.
Standing for what you believe in, regardless of the odds against you,
And pressure that tears at your resistance,
Keeping a smile on your face, when inside you feel like dying,
for the sake of supporting others,
Means strength.
Doing more than is expected, to make another’s life more bearable,
without uttering a single complaint,
Means compassion.
Stopping at nothing, and doing what in your heart you know is right,
Means determination.
Helping a friend in need, no matter the time or effort, to the best of your ability
Means loyalty.
